a small glimpse into my world and what i love... 

summer may be here, but i've been having fun catching up on my studies. call me crazy, but i just love medieval art that much. i've been working on an essay for a class next year with the help of my prof; the subject of which is holyrood abbey (12th century, scotland). although much of the abbey church has been destroyed, i find such beauty in the leftover pieces, and there is a mystery to the architecture that tempts my heart and piques at my curiosity...

okay, so these pictures have definitely been retouched. but the stone really has taken on various shades of mossy greens and aging purples. some artsy character just got a little carried away with the colour saturation. because i like prettily coloured things, i'll find it in my heart to forgive them ;)

on another note, i cannot wait to finish up my bachelor so i may tackle my graduate studies in the magnificent united kingdom. to imagine being so close to such architecture makes my heart sing!

summer is officially here and my days are spent exploring the streets of downtown. hearing my best friend talk about her summery days in the country has me nostalgic and longing to be in glengarry with her.

home soon?

discovered an amazingly talented photographer yesterday, lissy elle. i love finding new artists. 

this week, aiyana and i have a friend from england staying with us! she is just like a traveling gypsy girl, and she's a lot of fun to have around.

21 years today. uneven numbers are just so comfortable.
i'm wishing for a rainstorm tonight for an excuse to cuddle up with a cup of tea and pride & prejudice.
